Investment thesis
Marathon VC believes that seed-stage investment is fundamentally about establishing strong operational and relational foundations. The firm provides curated networks and relationships that enable founders to achieve more with fewer resources and accelerates their path to scale. The investment strategy emphasizes sector-agnostic backing across key vertical SaaS, B2B marketplace, fintech, and healthtech opportunities, with a particular focus on Latin American markets where the firm identifies significant gaps in traditional enterprise infrastructure and underserved SME segments.
